OPM Benefits Denial

OPM Disability Attorney Houston

What To Do After You’ve Been Denied OPM Benefits

If you are unable to work in order to provide for yourself and your family,
it can be stressful. If you are unable to maintain a steady income due
to disability, you should be able to win disability benefits. Unfortunately,
the social security system can make this task an uphill struggle. Every
year over 2 million people apply for disability, 69% of those people go
to the next adjudicative level. Of those 69%, only 38% are actually awarded
benefits. If you have been denied for your disability benefits, it is
important to not get discouraged. At The Law Offices of Eric L. Pines,
PLLC, our
Houston OPM disability attorney can help guide you through this difficult task.

How We Can Help

Most people initially denied for their benefits, never reapply, thinking
they simply do not qualify for the program. This pattern of thinking prevents
many eligible people from winning disability benefits that may actually
qualify. An
OPM disability attorney may be able to help better your odds by carefully reviewing your application
and looking for any omissions. A lawyer may also be able to assist you
with writing a reconsideration letter when you appeal. If you plan on
appealing your claim, having a legal advocate on your side is critical
to your success. Statistically, individuals who seek benefits without
legal representation do not end up winning their cases. This is because
the majority of people applying for disability have no idea how to organize
and prepare for a hearing.

Our attorneys can help with the following vital pieces of information for
your case:

Medical Records

Test Results

Detailed Statements from Physicians

Composing a Detail Reconsideration Letter
